26 May

Today was a short ride of approx 300km to a beautiful town north west of Mexico City called San Miguel De Allende. We are spending 2 nights here as numerous people that we have met in the last few months have commented on what a great little town this is.

We got here at about 4pm because we had a lazy Sunday morning in MC and left at lunch time. The problem with this is that like all of South and Central America, when in the mountains, it rains almost every afternoon at this time of the year and today was no different although we were through it after about 10km. the rest of the afternoon and evening was spent at the rooftop Tapas bar eating an early dinner, a few drinks and watching the sunset.

Be a sport Many of us have the means and wherewithal to undertake the dreams we want but elect to choose otherwise, many however, do not and that is the purpose of this plea. Afrika Tikkun (http://afrikatikkun.org// ) is a South African non governmental, non profit charity organisation run by the Lubner family that in essence does just that; re-provide the possibility to dream and to create the possibility of turning those dreams into a reality.

Unlike many pleas of this nature, I am not looking for any kind of sponsorship for my trip, but I am looking for your donation, regardless of its size to Afrika Tikkun. Please pledge generously as this is a fantastic cause that will assist them to provide food, care, education, health and social services to those that are desperately in need.
